Method Man is back with new album The Meth Lab, and with guest spots from Inspectah Deck, Raekwon and Masta Killa, its a proper Wu-Tang Clan affair. Redman also features of course, among others. Stream and buy below, and let us know what you think. The only thing that bugs us is why make an album with a running Breaking Bad theme now, and not a few years ago when it was actually relevant?

Asher Roth – ‘The Hierophant’
Black Milk has laced Asher Roth with this dope beat for throwaway joint The Hierophant. It’s short, but Roth manages to fit in some choice bars in just one minute and 34 seconds. Listen below and let us know what you think.
Awkword – ‘Go!’ remix feat. Wordsworth, Joel Ortiz, Aaron Cohen & K. Sparks
The ever-busy Audible Doctor provides the beat for this remix to Go! from Awkword, the original of which appears on his recent World View album. It’s got an all-star line-up of guests including eMC rapper Wordsworth, and you can listen below.
Money Making Jam Boys – ‘Mad Men’ session
The Money Making Jam Boys (aka The Roots legend Black Thought, Truck North and STS) have dropped this rhyming session over The Wurxs version of the Mad Men theme, which of course is itself taken from the 2006 Magnificent City album from RJD2 and Aceyalone. Confused? Just listen below.
Nelapa – ‘Another One of Mine’ feat. Open Mike Eagle & Milo
Open Mike Eagle appears on this nice slice of oddness from Nalepa. Judging from the artwork above, this looks to be from a project featuring members of the Project Blowed crew and beyond, and you can listen to Another One of Mine below.
Paris – ‘Buck, Buck, Pass’
Veteran emcee Paris is back with this new track, and as you’d expect, its a politically-charged and violent one. Buck, Buck, Pass is taken from new upcoming album Pistol Politics, and you can watch the video below.
Mos Def (Yasiin Bey) – ‘Basquiat Ghostwriter’ video
There’s now a video for Mos Def single Basquiat Ghostwriter. This being Mos, and this being dedicated to the late artist, its a prefictably pretentious visual, but still worth a watch. Let us know what you think.
3rd Eye Contact – ‘3rd Eye Contact’ EP
Following on from the single Piece Be Still we posted a few days ago, you can now stream the full self-titled EP from 3rd Eye Contact (Cas Metah, Mellow Drum Addict, Defizit and EF Cuttin). It’s definitely worthy of your time, and you can listen and buy below.
Constant Deviants – ‘Standards’
Constant Deviants (M.I. and DJ Cutt) have released this new single, the latest from their decent Avant Garde album. It sounds dope, and you can listen below. Also go check out the album if you haven’t already.
Gangrene (Alchemist & Oh No) – ‘Sheet Music’ feat. Sean Price
Alchemist and Oh No have paid their own tribute to Sean Price with this smoked-out video for Sheet Music, from the new Gangrene album, You Disgust Me. The track features both Price and Havoc from Mobb Deep, with a slow-burner of a beat. Watch below, then go get the new album if you haven’t yet.
